Turn off the POWER switch once, then turn it on again. If this procedure is not
successful, turn off the POWER switch once. Then, while pressing [REC/JUMP]
button, turn the POWER switch on again. (Note that, in this case, all parameters
return to their factory-preset status.)
No sound is produced when the keys are pressed.
The MASTER VOLUME is at the minimum setting. Adjust the volume with
the MASTER VOLUME control. (P. 10)

The sound is distorted.
The sound is distorted not as the [TUBE OVERDRIVE] knob screen shows.
If you are playing this keyboard using the Combination Preset, the actual value
of the drive is different from the position of the knob.
Switch OFF the [TUBE AMP] button, or, turn the [TUBE OVERDRIVE] knob
to the left, to the point where it is not distorted. You can easily check the actual
drive value by the [TUBE AMP]. (P. 39)
Depending on the headphones you use, the sound is sometimes distorted when
you turn the [MASTER VOLUME] to the maximum. In such a case, set the
[MASTER VOLUME] in the middle.
The sound does not come out immediately after switched
on.
The [TUBE AMP] button is ON. A Vacuum Tube circuit is mounted in this
keyboard. It takes approximately 10 to 20 seconds after the [TUBE AMP] but-
ton is switched ON. Before you will hear the sound.
The sound is not distorted if the [TUBE OVERDRIVE] knob
is turned.
When the Overdrive Expression is at "EX-OD", it does not distort if the value
of Expression is low. In such a case, increase the Expression value, or, set the
Overdrive Expression at "OD-EX", if you want to distort regardless of the Ex-
pression value. (P. 71)
